Doomsday: I Become Invincible By Picking Up

C137 – Fighting

The dozen or so Evolvers were utterly terrified. Even facing a King Level warrior, they would have been in serious trouble if they encountered a Peak overlord level mutated beast.

Furthermore, they were merely a group of Level 5 Evolver warriors.

They had no means of self-defense.

Black unleashed an enraged roar. With a swish of his tail, several Evolvers were instantly slain by him.

“Withdraw!”

The remaining Evolvers didn’t dare to linger. They retreated one after another.

Black’s duty was to protect Loong Kui, so he refrained from pursuing them.

Chen Jingtian clenched his teeth and observed this scene, his heart filled with profound shock.

What had transpired during Loong Chen’s disappearance? His strength had undergone such an abrupt increase, and he even had a Peak Lord Class mutated beast as his guardian.

On Loong Chen’s side, Chen Hongtian was compelled to retreat under Loong Chen’s assault. He no longer resembled a King Level warrior in the slightest.

“It’s time to conclude this. Poseidon’s Seven Styles, One Halberd Annihilation!”

Suddenly, Loong Chen emitted a resounding shout. The trident in his hand radiated a powerful azure light.

The azure light coalesced into an enormous trident shadow and thrust towards Chen Hongtian.

“No!”

Chen Hongtian sensed the dread-inspiring aura of the phantom Trident, causing his pupils to constrict.

He felt the approach of imminent death. The pressure weighed heavily on his heart, leaving him devoid of the courage to flee.

The trident pierced through the air barrier and collided with Chen Hongtian’s body.

Chen Hongtian was immediately sent flying, sliding across the ground for dozens of meters before finally coming to a halt. Subsequently, he coughed up a substantial amount of blood.

Chen Hongtian’s Qi dwindled instantly.

Loong Chen’s figure flickered once more. He appeared in front of Chen Hongtian in an instant, aiming the trident at Chen Hongtian’s chest.

“You had no right to harm my sister.”

Loong Chen’s tone was icy. If Chen Hongtian had only targeted Loong Chen himself, Loong Chen might not have been so furious.

Regrettably, Chen Hongtian had crossed a line that Loong Chen couldn’t tolerate.

“You took the life of my son, Tianming. I want you to experience the agony of losing your own family!”

Chen Hongtian displayed a menacing expression and yelled fiercely.

He seemed aware that his own demise was inevitable, yet he showed no fear.

“Very well, I shall grant you the kindness of reuniting with your deceased son!”

After uttering those words, Loong Chen raised his trident, ready to thrust it at Chen Hongtian.

Right at that moment, a loud command rang out from nearby.

“Halt!”

Loong Chen furrowed his brow, but he could discern from the voice that the man was undeniably formidable.

That individual was, at the very least, at the pinnacle of the King Level.

However, even someone of that stature couldn’t deter Loong Chen.

Loong Chen paid no heed to anything else and used the trident to aim for Chen Hongtian’s chest.

However, just as the trident was about to descend, a beam of light suddenly shot forth and struck the trident’s shaft.

Loong Chen immediately felt an immense force pushing against him. It forcefully deflected his trident, causing it to impale Chen Hongtian’s left shoulder.

Chen Hongtian let out a suppressed groan of pain.

“How dare you! I explicitly ordered you to stop! Why didn’t you heed my words?!”

At this juncture, an elderly man in his sixties materialized in front of Loong Chen. He glared at Loong Chen and rebuked him.

“Who are you?! Why should I heed your instructions?”

Loong Chen said bluntly.

Due to the Loong Kui incident, he had developed intense animosity towards everyone at the Green Cloud Temple.

“Disrespectful! Loong Chen, how dare you address the Grand Elder rudely? Are you seeking your own demise?”

Chen Jingtian was thrilled to see the arrival of the elderly man and hastily exclaimed.

“Grand Elder, he brazenly entered the dungeon and slew numerous individuals from our Green Cloud Temple. You must apprehend him!”

The Grand Elder surveyed the lifeless bodies strewn about, his countenance darkening.

While the Green Cloud Temple might not match the might of the Dragon God Temple, it still stood as one of the foremost superpowers in the eastern continent.

When had they ever endured such disgrace?

“The Green Cloud Temple is not a place for your disruptive actions. Surrender swiftly. Considering your affiliation with the Dragon God Temple, I may spare your life!”

The Grand Elder stated with a disdainful snort.

Unlike Chen Jingtian, he harbored no desire to kill Loong Chen. He was well aware of Loong Chen’s standing within the Dragon God Temple.

The Invincible Dragon God had been willing to personally annihilate a family with a King Level warrior just to avenge Loong Chen. Although this act might have been spurred by Dugu Lengyue, it also underscored the high regard the Invincible Dragon God held for Loong Chen.

If Loong Chen were to meet his demise within the Green Cloud Temple, it could ignite a conflict between two superpowers.

The Grand Elder had to weigh the bigger picture. Otherwise, he might have executed Loong Chen.

“You lack wisdom.”

Loong Chen responded to the Grand Elder’s attempts at persuasion.

The Grand Elder’s countenance had turned entirely grim.

“Do you genuinely believe I wouldn’t dare to end your life?”

“If you seek a confrontation, then let it be. If not, then depart. There’s no need for superfluous words.”

Loong Chen said bluntly.

He must kill Chen Hongtian.

“Very well. If you’re seeking your own demise, I shall grant your wish!”

The Grand Elder was filled with intense anger.

Just as he and Loong Chen were on the verge of launching an attack, a nonchalant and icy voice suddenly resonated within the void.

“Chen Daofu, a man of your age, three hundred years old, resorting to attacking a youth of merely sixteen or seventeen? How disgraceful!”

This voice seemed to have undergone special manipulation, devoid of any emotion, making it impossible for listeners to discern whether it belonged to a male or female.

Yet, it was this voice that caused an abrupt change in the Grand Elder’s expression. He promptly retracted his hand.

His gaze was fixed on a specific point, where distortions appeared in the fabric of space.

In the following instant, two figures materialized seemingly out of thin air.

One of them was draped in a black robe and concealed their visage behind a dragon-headed mask.

The other individual was a girl aged seventeen or eighteen, radiating an otherworldly beauty, yet her countenance exuded an icy demeanor.

Surprisingly, when the girl caught sight of Loong Chen, an excited expression crossed her face.

She rushed to Loong Chen’s side, enveloping him in a tight embrace before the stunned onlookers.

“Miss Dugu?”

Loong Chen found himself even more surprised.

He hadn’t anticipated the presence of Invincible Dragon God and Dugu Lengyue in this place.

It was equally unexpected that Dugu Lengyue would take the initiative to publicly embrace him.

“I’m relieved to see you in good health.”

Dugu Lengyue expressed, her voice revealing a touch of emotion.

Loong Chen’s heart instantly softened as he recalled Dugu Lengyue’s request to Invincible Dragon God to annihilate the Murong family on his behalf.

“Lengyue, I’m grateful.”

Loong Chen condensed his gratitude into a single sentence.

“Perhaps we should focus on our business now?”

At that moment, Invincible Dragon God’s voice resounded.

Dugu Lengyue blushed with embarrassment. She realized the presence of numerous onlookers and promptly released her embrace of Loong Chen.

“Loong Chen, have no fear. My master is here. You’ll be safe.”

Dugu Lengyue reassured Loong Chen, who nodded in agreement.

Dugu Lengyue’s words weren’t an exaggeration. With Invincible Dragon God’s power, as long as he intended to protect Loong Chen, no one could harm him.

Naturally, Loong Chen had no fear from the beginning.

He possessed several unutilized techniques. If pushed to the brink, he could still make the Green Cloud Temple quake, even if it meant enduring severe injuries.

Having the spatial extraordinary talent, he had the opportunity to escape with Loong Kui safely.
